Hey guys,

Trying to find out if this little nick on the tyre wall is an MOT fail? Is there a level of damage you can go to or is it absolute fail regardless of damage?

The tyres are brand new, less than a year, so want to know if there is anything I can do avoid needing to change them?

Thanks in advance

	You can't "unbreak" the broken,you can only break the unbroken to break the break of the unbroken, for me, you cannot unbreak me, for I am already broken,so you have no need to break the break because I am not unbroken.

If the damage is not that bad, then what a tester does not want you to know is this...

Glue it up

You can't "unbreak" the broken,you can only break the unbroken to break the break of the unbroken, for me, you cannot unbreak me, for I am already broken,so you have no need to break the break because I am not unbroken.
